I can’t believe I made it to day 30. I’m not great with follow through and sticking with something. The fact that I blogged everyday for 30 days, that I didn’t give up, that I kept going - that amazes me.
Tomorrow I’ll take my Day 30 picture and post all my stats. I’m not really [...]

I can’t believe tomorrow is Day 30. I feel like I’ve sort of bombed the last half of boot camp. The exercise just hasn’t been there, because of injury. Which is totally frustrating. BUT - I feel like I got myself back on track and THAT is really what the whole Boot Camp thing was [...]

I got hit today with some major financially devastating news. It has left me reeling and I don’t know what to do. It’s my own fault for not asking the right questions and making some basic assumptions. I don’t know how I’m going to make it month to month. And in March it’s going to [...]

As Brseay pointed out, I’m almost to day 30. I don’t know if I can really call these last 10 days much of a boot camp. Injury and my workload have prevented daily exercise. My diet has stayed on track… except for the 5 or so coconut macaroon cookies I ate yesterday. And honestly, that [...]

Should I even bother trying to set a goal for today? My grandparents are already scheduled to come down to visit at the store today… a little excursion for them. And I’ll go over to visit them this morning, both to check and make sure the DVD set up is still working for them (we [...]

Today’s goal: go to the gym
Yesterday was not mine. It was spent taking care of my grandparents and trying to get a handful of things done at work that absolutely HAD to get done. In fact, there was one thing that I needed to do and couldn’t because I just ran out of time. Today, [...]

I’m getting ready to head out on my run this morning. Just 3 miles… it feels weird saying just to that. But three miles has become my default run. I think that bumps up to 4 miles on my small run days next month. And by November, I’ll be running 6 miles on my regular [...]

Ahhhhh crap. Did I run today? No, I did not. Becuz? Why becuz of my damn knee. Well, the what I believe to be pinched nerve that runs behind my knee cap and causes a searing pain when it flares up… which seems to be when I bend it. Which is totally required when running [...]

I don’t have work today. My grandparents want to take my family out for breakfast this morning. Which sounds really sweet of them, and it is. However, the logistics are somewhat of a nightmare. They live in an assisted living home and can’t drive (my grandpa turned 88 a couple weeks ago, grandma is 87.) [...]
